The Israeli Defense Forces on Sunday accused a prominent journalist– who in recent months has reported regularly for Al Jazeera from Gaza – of moonlighting as a senior Hamas commander.
The Israeli Defense Forces have published photos they say were discovered on a laptop in Gaza that show Al Jazeera journalist Mohamed Washah engaged in Hamas terrorist activities.
Neither Al Jazeera nor the Qatari government have responded to the Sun’s request for comment.
Capability plus motivation does not equal guilt. If it did, how many Americans would be dead right now by gunshot because of others with guns (capability) and plenty of motivation yet they don’t all act on it? But claiming a Jew does just because they are a Jew, yes, that is antisemitic.

no one did that.
you must not be reading to closely then.
You must be reading into something that isn’t there. You might be a little biased dude. Take a step back.
>Capability plus motivation does not equal guilt.
of course not, but it is good reason to be suspicious of any claims and demand evidence.
The fucking laptop is evidence.
right. i want to see chain of custody.
ok, go to Israel and ask the IDF. Maybe they will show you. Maybe they will tell you to go blow it out of your ass for being a nuisance.
having a policy of disbelieving accusations until proven beyond a reasonable doubt is how i was brought up
distrusting the government is as american as apple pie
Being skeptical of accusations is a human trait. Being skeptical of the government is also (that extends to authority figures). Going as far as distrust is cynical and that is just plain stupid and dangerous.
How many claims from Hamas do you distrust? I’d assume most of them, right? Is it just because you’re cynical?
